3 BR Historic Home on Hanover Ave 5 Blocks from VCU-FULLY FURNISHED-Call to VIEW!
Historic Home in the Fan for Rent: September 3 – October 4, 2025 (At the present the ONLY house listed on VCU Housing in THE FAN!)

This historic home at 2004 Hanover Avenue in Richmond’s iconic Fan District is available for rent from September 3 - October 4, 2025. Its close proximity to institutions of higher learning, art museums, theatrical companies, medical facilities, and other local establishments make this a perfect location for those in search of a temporary month’s stay while in the area: ideal for doctors, artists, actors with the film industry, or perhaps a family whose house is under renovation.
Built in 1904, the home is tastefully decorated and graced with an array of southern charm. Typical of the homes in the Fan, it has a front and back parlor serving respectively as the living and dining rooms thoroughly furnished with antiques, artwork, and oriental rugs.
The sunny, art-enhanced kitchen is well-equipped for anyone who enjoys cooking.
The sunroom’s Palladium windows allow the sun and the beauty of the boxwood-filled garden to come inside, creating a feeling of calm after a day’s work. It’s everyone favorite room in the house (not a “man’s cave” but cozy.) Being that fall will be in the air, the outdoor deck with adjoining formal garden is just the place to dine al fresco or relax in the fresh air. It’s like being in a small Mediterranean town!
Upstairs, the master bedroom with queen bed is full of light coming in through the bay window. The adjoining bath is tiled with Carrara marble with walls attractively hand-painted in an abstract design by a local artist. A Venetian chandelier hangs from the ceiling.
There are two guest bedrooms: one with a double bed and the other with an old-fashion white iron single bed. A small sunroom can easily be furnished with a futon to make it a 4th bedroom or simply a lovely cozy place to read or take a nap. A hall bath with double imported-marble sink serves both of these two rooms.
This is a rare opportunity to experience the elegance and charm of one of Richmond’s distinctive neighborhoods with well-preserved architectural details alongside modern amenities. The home offers an inviting atmosphere suitable for professionals, families, or those seeking a temporary relocation in a central location.
